During the special rectification of prominent issues in rural collective "three capital" management, the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Commission of Hejiang County, Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, discovered that the flow of loan funds from an economic cooperative in a village in Lijiang Town was abnormal, and immediately established an investigation team to investigate. The investigation team reviewed loan contracts, bank statements, meeting minutes, and visited relevant personnel. A village collective fund "Ant Moving" case surfaced - in October 2020, the village stock economic cooperative applied for a loan from the bank under the guise of developing the lychee industry. But Wang, who was then the secretary of the village party committee, the director of the village committee, and the legal representative of the cooperative, used some of the loan funds to repay personal debts, pay the land contracting fees of his joint venture company, and personal consumption. He also illegally borrowed 73800 yuan from the village collective funds to pay for his personal planting project expenses. The deep-seated problem points to loopholes in the village decision-making and management mechanism. The investigators found that Wang had a strong work style and engaged in a "one-man rule". In addition, the lax implementation of the village level financial system at that time gave him an opportunity to take advantage. In this way, small loans gradually diverted the use of village collective funds. A thousand mile embankment collapsed in an ant nest. This is a typical 'ant moving' type of corruption, with small amounts, multiple occurrences, and long-term persistence. It often occurs at the grassroots level and is not easy for people to detect, but it brings great harm and must be highly vigilant. ”According to the investigators, Wang still had other disciplinary issues and was expelled from the party. In this case, the village cadres' "ant moving" style "borrowing" eroded the collective funds of the village in a "continuous flow" manner, which is very covert. This is due to both a weak sense of purpose and discipline, as well as the exposure of loopholes in the village level financial system and decision-making mechanism. In this regard, it is necessary to further refine and strengthen the daily supervision of village level small and micro power, and tighten the institutional cage of village collective "three capital" management. Party members and cadres should bear in mind that 'public funds are given the surname' and not a single penny should be spent recklessly. They should strictly abide by discipline and rules, and maintain the bottom line of integrity. (New Society)
